RecycleActor Command

NPCTarget
RecycleActor
To target your character, use the command below:
player.RecycleActor

This command revives or resets the targeted NPC or object.

In-Depth Description

NPCs: Using the command on NPCs can bring them back to life.

However, there are potential side effects:

  • NPCs might return without their heads, especially Nords.
  • The inventory of the NPC isn't completely reset; they will retain most items, but their weapon will be reset.
  • Enemies will prioritize attacking NPCs from opposing factions and will ignore the player until those enemies are defeated.

Containers: When used on containers, the command behaves similarly to resetinventory, resetting the contents of the container.

Objects: The command can be used to reset objects to their original state and position. This is especially useful if an object has been displaced or altered and you want to return it to its original state.

Player: If the command is used on the player character, their inventory remains unchanged.
